max

max —
Produces a signal that is the maximum of any number of input signals.

Description

The max opcode takes any number of a-rate or k-rate signals as input (all of the same rate), and outputs a signal at the same rate that is the maximum of all of the inputs. For a-rate signals, the inputs are compared one sample at a time (i.e. max does not scan an entire ksmps period of a signal for its local maximum as the max_k opcode does).
